The Hidden Series
Moving on to the next awesome series on my list, the Hidden series. I first saw this series on a group message board and decided to give the first book a read. Boy was I surprised. I was instantly sucked into the book and finished it in one sitting, I simply couldn't put it down. I had the same experience with every book in this series. I loved the story and the characters. Definitely a roller coaster of emotions with this one. This is another series I was very sad to see end, but Vanderlinden ended it beautifully. Definitely a series lovers of urban fantasy/paranormal genre should read. The reading order is as follows:
Book One - Lost Girl
Molly Brooks is a telepathic vigilante with a few secrets and a mysterious past. Determined to make something of her bizarre powers, she devotes herself to saving those who need her most. One night, she's followed by a powerful being in a pickup truck, and her world will never be the same. Finding herself thrust into a world full of supernatural beings she could have only imagined, Molly learns how powerful she really is, and how much she stands to lose.
Combining elements of urban fantasy and paranormal romance, Lost Girl is the first book in the Hidden series by author Colleen Vanderlinden.

Book Two - Broken
Telepath. Vigilante. Nightmare.
The citizens of Detroit tell tales about the Angel. About how she stalks the streets at night, bringing evil to its knees. They pray her name. They whisper about those she's saved. And those she's destroyed.If only they knew the whole story.
Molly Brooks has earned her reputation: an Angel to the humans she's saved, a nightmare to the supernaturals who cross her. She is the last and only line of defense between the innocents in her city and those who hunt them. She is feared. Loved. A legend in the making.
But she's barely hanging on.
She's lost too much, become something she fears. The things she doesn't know about her past threaten to destroy her as she tries to learn how to navigate the new world she's created for herself. Untangling the mysteries of her powers only reveals new dangers, more deadly than anything she could have imagined. Can she protect those she loves, those who have become her friends and family, from the nightmare of what she is?
And what will it take to truly break her?

Book Three - Home
Vigilante. Telepath. Godslayer.
The Angel.
Molly Brooks has never been one to shy away from a fight, to hide from what needs to be done to protect the innocent.
Even when it ends up costing her everything.
Molly was beginning to have the type of life she'd only ever dreamed of: friends, family, rewarding work. Respect.
Love.
And her actions put her world, and every person she loved, in danger.
So she did what she had to do: she protected her world from war. A war she caused, a war fought because of who she is, and what she is capable of. She never could have imagined that in doing so, she would be taken away from everything that mattered most to her.
Lost in a hostile world, away from everyone and everything that ever mattered to her, Molly has to find a way to make peace, and then she has to find a way make her way back home.
Assuming she can survive that long.
When and if she gets there, will the world she loves still be the same?
And the bigger question is: will she?

Book Four - Strife
What do you do when your most dangerous foe is the one living inside you?
When Molly Brooks fought her way back to Detroit after her trials in the Nether, she came back changed. The life she thought she had, the one thing that helped keep her sane, was gone. She feels wrong in her own skin, scared. And her powers… well. They’re just not working the way they’re supposed to.She doesn’t have a whole lot of time to wallow, though. With two angry spirit daemons hell-bent on punishing her and the city she loves for her deeds, as well as war brewing between Detroit’s supernaturals and certain members of the pantheon looking for revenge, Molly has her hands full.
But what she’s forced to face is nothing compared to the evil that lurks inside of her.
As her world starts to spiral out of control, as war rages, Molly finds comfort in the last place she ever thought she would. And she comes to learn, after a life spent alone, what family really means.
And how much she’s willing to risk to protect it.

Book Five - Nether
Molly Brooks has faced every foe thrown at her: power-hungry gods, hateful spirits, plotting demons, and everything in between. She has been betrayed. Lied to. Tortured. Possessed. And she has fought her way back from the brink, time and time again.
It all leads up to this.
Two Titans, formerly imprisoned by Molly’s family, now walk the mortal realm. The vengeful ancient, Nether, finally freed from her prison, longs for revenge against those who decided her fate. And this time, Molly just might not be enough to fight them all, despite having everything to lose.
This is the final installment in the Hidden urban fantasy series.

A Few Awesome Quotes:
“The Fates put the pieces into place. They may put two people in the same city, but they don’t determine whether those people love or hate each other, should they meet. They put the game pieces on the board, but we decide how to play the game.”
― Colleen Vanderlinden, Broken
“While I was strong enough to handle just about any damn thing that came my way, it felt good to have a little something to hold onto during the darkest times.”
― Colleen Vanderlinden, Home
